In Magician, a mysterious power of ancient evil was unleashed on two worlds, linked across the space and time. In Silverthorn, the power was temporarily defeated by Prince Arutha and his companions.

Now, in A DARKNESS AT SETHANON, the cycle of the Riftwar Saga is complete. The power has returned, in full force. The magician Pug is summoned from a mysterious sojourn to join forces with Tomas, the human turned Dragonlord. Together they set off on a cosmic journey in search of the sorcerer Macros the Black.

The paths of Arutha and Pug bring them to Sethanon, where an apocalyptic battle must be joined in a clash of inconceivable magnitude as the fate of two worlds hangs in the balance.

Magician was hailed by the critics, as was Silverthorn. Now, with A DARKNESS AT SETHANON, Raymond E. Feist's extraordinary imagination soars to new heights. This thrilling finale is high fantasy at its very best - alive with enchantment, romance, and the heady clash of steel on steel.

What Risingshadow readers think about this book

8/10

A Darkness at Sethanon is the third book of The Riftwar Saga.

In my opinion A Darkness at Sethanon isn't as good as the two previous books. This book is an enjoyable fantasy book, but it's just not as good as Magician and Silverthorn.

If you liked Magician and Silverthorn, you'll probably enjoy A Darkness at Sethanon too.
